Well, once again we present you with Holiday tunes from and by Iowans.
And like last year, the first episode features more traditional tunes. The second will feature poppier far. And the last one more untraditional and risque stuff.
Although these songs tend to be mellow and laid back, we still have quite the variety with a world flute player, a choir from a Christian college, a gospel singer, a female folk singer, a female folk duo, and a recent Iowa Jazz Hall of Fame inductee!
So get your eggnog going, get a warm fire started, light up the tree, then sit back, relax, and enjoy holiday tunes as only Iowa can bring them to you!
